“We Kill for Love" goes on a quest for the forgotten world of the direct-to-video Erotic Thriller, an American film genre that once dominated late-night cable television programming and the shelves of neighbourhood video stores. Balancing cinematic artistry with erudition, he opens the curtain to reveal the heart and soul of a forgotten and often vilified film movement. Anthony Penta presents us with a fictionalised essay on this movement, whose high points were films like "Fatal Attraction" and "Basic Instinct". Interviews with directors, the stars, the history of the business and the influence it would have on later films make up this definitive compendium on the Erotic Thriller."
